Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the current version of Ubuntu.
This is a significant bug in Ubuntu. If you need a fix for the bug in previous versions of Ubuntu, please perform as much as possible of the SRU Procedure [1] to bring the need to a developer's attention.

Example file: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2FJHEP07%282016%29126.pdf (alternatively, go to https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2FJHEP07%282016%29126 and click Download). Expected behavior: When I open the file in evince, hit Ctrl+P and go to "Preview" or print the file, I expect to see the document properly rendered. Actual behavior: Both the print preview and the printed result are an unreadable mess. I have encountered this problem on every PDF file from JHEP that I tested, but didn't encounter this problem on any PDF file from any other source. Only printing and print preview are affected, reading and browsing the file works without issues. The problem persists when a different printer is selected (in particular, it also appears when I choose "print to file"). I printed the same file on Windows using PDFXchange editor, where no problems appeared, suggesting that the file itself is not the root of the issue here.
